Barred Owl in the Shadow

Via Flickr:This Barred Owl is staying not far away from the trail at George C. Reifel Migratory Bird Sanctuary, Delta BC Canada. This place is in the shadow and covered by many trees. But sometimes he can not sleep well because noise generated by Mallards. Hungry Mallards are following people, and people stop to watch owl, then Mallards are staying around. After waiting people feeding for a certain period, Mallards might start fighting each other, then the Owl is trying to check who is bothering him.

What a cool photo!! This photo reminds me of a time when I was in high school when I captured a baby owl in a tree and took it home in a box. My idea was that I would raise it as a pet…. I was too young to know you can’t keep a wild bird like that and sadly it passed away. I remember being sad about that but I guess I learned a lesson to leave wildlife alone.

David’s Magablog

A personal online magazine and blog by David Thrift who resides in a mostly quiet trailerpark out in the country in Lee County, Alabama and is the owner of a cool little online hat shop called The Hat Pit. This site is a mix of all sorts of things from personal blog posts, twitter posts, funny pictures and other pictures found on the internet, links to cool websites and articles across the world wide web, and is my personal time killer when I am bored and have nothing else to do.

Disclaimer: I share photos seen on Flickr quite often, but I never claim credit for photos I did not take myself and I always provide photo credits in my blog posts for the photos I share when possible. I do understand some folks don't like their photos being shared and if you find a photo posted on my blog that you don't want posted here just leave a comment on that blog post and I will be happy to remove it for you. Also, Flickr does provide you with the ability to block sharing and I always respect a photographers wishes to not share photos when I see that sharing has been disabled.
